Dave, What you are trying to do with virtual CTCs, I have done with EMIF'ed real CTCs across LPARs. It should be the same - YES??
Here are my RSCS and JES2 configuration data for the NJE definitions. The RSCS system runs in LPAR2 (my naming convention is System-ID, System-configuration and LPAR number - thus System "Z" running in "S"-ingle image mode and LPAR 2 becomes ZS02). So, RSCS running first level under z/VM in LPAR 2 is named ZS02RSCS. The JES 2 file came from LPAR 3. RSCS (LPAR 2): * * Link Virt Spool Keep Queue LOGMODE Aut * Linkid Type Addr * Class Slot Type DP LUNAME Name Sta * -------- -------- ---- - ----- ---- ----- -- -------- -------- --- LINKDEFINE ZS01JES2 AST CL * DP 5 LINE 0F15 TYPE NJE NODE ZS01JES2 LINKDEFINE ZS03JES2 AST CL * DP 5 LINE 0F3B TYPE NJE NODE ZS03JES2 * JES 2 (LPAR 3): NJEDEF NODENUM=16, /* MAX NUMBER OF NODES */ RESTNODE=100, /* DEFAULT */ LINENUM=10, /* NUMBER OF LINES */ JTNUM=2, /* DEFAULT */ JRNUM=2, /* DEFAULT */ SRNUM=2, /* DEFAULT */ STNUM=2, /* DEFAULT */ PATH=2, /* DEFAULT */ OWNNODE=1 SMFDEF BUFNUM=10 /* */ /* NJE PARAMETERS */ /* CTCA NJE */ /* */ NODE(1) NAME=ZS03JES2,AUTH=(NET=YES) NODE(3) NAME=ZS01JES2 /* Z/800 Z/OS LPAR - 1 */ NODE(2) NAME=ZS02RSCS,PATHMGR=NO /* Z/800 Z/VM LPAR - 2 */ /* */ DESTID(ZS01) DEST=ZS01JES2 DESTID(ZS02) DEST=ZS02RSCS DESTID(ZS03) DEST=OWNODE /* */ CONNECT NODEA=ZS01JES2,MEMBA=1,NODEB=ZS02RSCS,MEMBB=1,REST=100 APPL(ZS03JES2) COMPACT=0,NODE=1 APPL(ZS01JES2) COMPACT=0,NODE=2 APPL(ZS02RSCS) COMPACT=0,NODE=3 /* LINE1 UNIT=303,REST=20,TRANSPAR=YES */ LINE(1) UNIT=SNA LINE(2) UNIT=F25,REST=20,TRANSPAR=YES LINE(3) UNIT=SNA LINE(5) UNIT=SNA LINE(6) UNIT=SNA LINE(7) UNIT=SNA LOGON1 APPLID=ZS03JES2 /* END OF NJE PARMS */ Hope this helps.

Hi, Gang.... I have a problem I'm hoping somebody on this list can assist me with..... I need to configure an NJE connection between a first level RSCS server and a 2nd level z/OS guest. The client wants to be able to submit z/OS batch type jobs from CMS user id on the 1st level VM system to the 2nd level z/OS one, and get the prt/pun output back to the CMS user. I have a virtual CTC connection set up between VM and z/OS already, and z/OS can see the CTC, vary it online, etc. What I am missing are the RSCS and JES2 (I think, or maybe I need to use VTAM?) line configuration statements. Does anyone have a set of working examples they would be willing to share? TIA. Have a good one. DJ
